Cranberry Bliss Truffles

Based on Starbucks seasonal favourite, Cranberry bliss Bars, these quick make truffles will quickly become a "must bring" treat to all the office parties and potlucks during the holidays! They are so easy to make and you will be fooled that they aren't the real thing!

1 package Oreos golden/vanilla
1 package Candi Quik melting chocolate
8 oz Cream Cheese softened
½ cup Craisins dried cranberries
1 tsp Lemon Zest
1 tsp Orange Zest

• Using a food processor, crush the oreos until they are finely chopped.
• Add the softened cream cheese to the oreos and combine  
• Add the lemon and orange zest.
• Add in the half Craisins and mix well. 
• The remaining Craisins will be used on top of truffles.
• Using a small scoop, make ¾ – 1 inch balls and place on wax paper. 
• Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
• While the truffle balls are in the refrigerator, melt the chocolate either in the microwave in microwave safe bowl or using the double broiler method. 
• Set aside one small amount of chocolate to melt at the end for the drizzle.
• Dip each truffle into the chocolate with two forks and gently shake off the excess chocolate. 
• Lay each dipped chocolate onto the wax paper.
• Melt the remaining chocolate for the drizzling in the same manner as above.
• Cut a very small slit into a gallon Ziploc bag. 
• Pour chocolate into the bag and drizzle back and forth on top of the truffles.
• Add the remaining Craisins to the top quickly as the chocolate dries fast.
